SUBJECT: Request for a certificate of appropriateness to allow the
demolition of a house and the construction of a new house
FILE: CA- 1847
STAFF REPORT
The Planning Manager recommends approval subject to the following
conditions:
1. The roof shall be covered with architectural shingles.
2. The windows frames shall consist of white colored aluminum
or vinyl.
McVaugh Builders, LLC has applied for a certificate of
appropriateness to demolish the house at 2185 South and build
a new house at the same location. The house received hurricane
damage.
The new 858 sq. ft. house will be sided with hardie plank.
Windows will be one over one panes. The house shall be
constructed on pier and beam. The body of the house will be
painted Sherwin Williams A Peace Yellow @ (SW2857) and the trim
will be painted Sherwin Williams A Caribbean Coral @ (SW 2854).
2185 South is listed in the 1990 SPARE Beaumont Survey. The
house was built c. 1917. SPARE states that the house is typical
of middle class housing built in Beaumont after the first
Spindletop boom. At the time of the survey, the use of modern
materials had sacrificed the architectural integrity of the
structure.
